The processes are the same for all
of our private and publicly owned businesses. Each business provides products
and services to customers. These businesses make payrolls, collect and forward gross
receipts taxes to states, make profit sharing contributions to employee retirement
accounts, help pay for health insurance, pay other overhead (rent, utilities etc.). These businesses all comply with a myriad of costly
rules and regulations. And if all goes well, most of these companies will have
profits at the end of the year and write more checks to the state and federal government to cover the taxes
on those profits. If there are NO profits, as shareholders the losses are OUR LOSSES. Because losses hurt financially, NOBODY is willing to share OUR losses……we simply lose OUR money.

You have to laugh at the words Democrats and their buddies
in the media have been using to describe the new tax reform law. Let’s see, it
has been called: looting, ransacking, a heist, a theft, and a giveaway.

Now mind you, I don’t have the largest vocabulary in the
world, but I do know the meaning of these terms. However for those of you who
need to brush up on your language skills, I pulled up the definitions for these
words just to make sure I was getting it right. The terms “heist” and “theft” are synonyms. They mean stealing.
The term “ransacking” is stealing too, but it also involves doing physical damage to property while stealing goods. The term “looting” is stealing goods,
typically during a riot or a war. To receive a “giveaway” is to receive something
of value for free without paying for it.

It is important to recognize in the paragraph above regarding
our business holdings, that we pay taxes on, “OUR" profits.”

Consider the language Democrats use to describe the adjustment in policy on OUR profits, assuming we are fortunate enough to have any. Democrats
say that because this new tax reform law will require us to send a reduced
percentage of OUR profits to the government, WE ARE ENGAGED IN THEFT.

Yes,
we are receiving giveaways. We are looting. We are ransacking. We are heisting.
Yep, people that millions of Democrats vote for, accuse us of stealing and damaging others
property, because government passed a law that says government will be TAKING A
LITTLE LESS of our income.

It would seem that Democrats and the media want people to
ignore the fundamental nature of both profit and loss. They want voters to believe
that private citizens and corporations don’t own their private income, they are just responsible for covering all losses.

Theft and stealing are simple concepts to understand. First the
thief needs to identify something that belongs to someone else that he or she
wants. And then the thief figures out a way to take it away. Of course,
stealing is immoral. And this is the essential point. According to Democrats, none of whom voted for this new law, requiring a little less in taxes from taxpayers, is
not a change in economic strategy......it is "stealing." Stealing is immoral and so is anyone who votes for tax relief according to Democrats.

Sorry folks. Kristi and I are not thieves. Neither are millions of other risk takers. Private
property, private income, and private operating losses exist. In the world of Democrats, everything belongs
to government and it is to be distributed only as government sees fit. In the
Democrat’s world, since government owns all income streams, if a certain group,
let’s call them taxpayers, gets some tax burden relief……….this is a heist, this
a theft, this is ransacking, this is looting. These taxpayers are receiving a
giveaway, because none of those profits in question, only the losses, belong to
the taxpayers.

What has just been described is Marxism. Not only is it
Marxism, it is totalitarian Marxism. Sadly, and thanks to our failed public
education system, the entertainment industry, and a Democrat-dominated news
media, voters are being told that honest taxpayers are stealing. What they are not willing to admit is that you can’t steal from yourself.

My hero Walter Williams suggests that if any entity is a
thief it is government, not taxpayers. I’m with him. We all recognize liars and cheats when we see them, and they have been hurling false accusations around pretty freely lately.
